C ommissioned, premiered and recorded by the Arctic Philharmonic Chamber Orchestra with Henning as soloist, the work was composed as a musical counterpart to a story specially written by world-famous author Jostein Gaarder, and has been hailed as вЂњ a fascinating composition to return to over and over againвЂќ ( MusicWeb International). His largest-scale work to date is entitled Equinox: 24 Postludes in All Keys for Violin and String Orchestra. Henning is a prolific composer whose works are performed by many prominent musicians and orchestras around the globe. Highlights of the current season include visits to the Aarhus and Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra s, and the HallГ© Orchestra. In past seasons, Henning has performed twice at the BBC Proms in LondonвЂ™s Royal Albert Hall, as well as with the Los Angeles Philharmonic at the Hollywood Bowl and the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra at Carnegie Hall. HenningвЂ™s eminence as a soloist and play/director have led to invitations time and again to many of the worldвЂ™s most significant orchestras, most recently the Royal Danish Opera Orchestra, Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, Deutsche Kammerakademie Neuss, Toronto Symphony, Baltimore Symphony, Danish National Symphony, TonkГјnstler Vienna, BBC Scottish Symphony, Tasmanian Symphony and Macao orchestras. His teaching and educational writings provide fascinating insights into his multi-faceted approach to music-making, while his composing, arranging and improvising вЂ“ frequently bringing his own works into the concert hall вЂ“ recall the spirit of the old masters such as Josef Suk and EugГЁne YsaГїe. His extraordinary reach as an artist is a result of his versatility and passion for music, as well as the genuine quality to his playing and the beauty of his performances. Norwegian violinist Henning Kraggerud is Artistic Director of the Arctic Philharmonic Chamber Orchestra.
